Tattoo-friendly onsen in Kyoto and Kansai

Tattoos welcome in the shared baths, or a hot spring of your own.

5 places in Kyoto and Kansai where tattoos are no trouble: either the shared baths welcome them, or every room has its own hot-spring bath, so you need not use the shared ones. Among them are Fufu Kyoto, Amanemu and Fufu Nara.
