Shibu Onsen Daimaruya
渋温泉 大丸屋
Does Shibu Onsen Daimaruya allow tattoos? In a private bath
A century-old inn of five rooms whose open-air bath is bigger than the house seems to need, about six people’s worth, and run as a private bath.
Daimaruya calls itself the inn with the private open-air bath and says nothing about tattoos. The open-air bath is private and holds about six; the indoor baths are split by sex and shared. Take the open-air one.

Best for: A cheap room-only stay with a private open-air bath big enough for a group
Five or six rooms (the page gives both), up to 20 guests. Men’s and women’s indoor baths, each about six tatami in size, and a private open-air bath for about six, with a second small tub for adjusting the temperature. No filtering or recirculation. New bookings with dinner are suspended: room-only and breakfast plans, with seven restaurants within a few minutes’ walk and a microwave for guests. The inn’s own booking page is in Japanese only.
