すみません、小さなタトゥーがあるのですが、入浴は可能でしょうか?

すみません、ちいさなタトゥーがあるのですが、にゅうよくはかのうでしょうか?

Excuse me, I have a small tattoo, but would it be possible to use the bath?

Reply

恐れ入ります。申し訳ございませんが、当館ではタトゥーのあるお客様のご入浴はお断りしております。

おそれいります。もうしわけございませんが、とうかんではタトゥーのあるおきゃくさまのごにゅうよくはおことわりしております。

I am truly sorry. We apologize, but guests with tattoos are not permitted to use our baths.

Gesture & etiquette

Slight bow. Maybe discreetly indicate the area of the tattoo if asked for more detail, but generally just stating you have one is enough.

Do not lie about having a tattoo. Always ask beforehand, especially if it's visible. If they say no, respect their rules and do not try to enter. Some places might allow if covered with a sticker.
