About Yu Yuki Shimakan
Yu Yuki Shimakan (湯之島館) is a ryokan in Gero, about 0.7 km in a straight line from Gero Station. This page sums up what its official website says about private bathing, so you can see at a glance whether it suits a couple, a family or a guest with tattoos.
The official site advertises rooms with a private open-air bath. Treat these as specific room types rather than the standard room, and choose that plan when you compare prices. There are 4 private (kashikiri) baths that one group at a time can lock and use. The website doesn't explain how slots work, so ask at check-in.
The property describes its water as free-flowing (源泉かけ流し), fed from the source rather than recirculated, although it also notes that some baths are filtered and recirculated. Tattoos aren't allowed in the shared baths, according to the website. It doesn't say whether the private baths are an exception, so ask before you book.
Anything marked 'not confirmed' below, such as tattoo rules for private baths, wasn't stated on the pages we checked. That doesn't mean the answer is no, only that we haven't assumed one. We checked the official website on 17 October 2026. Rules and fees change, so confirm with the property, and use the buttons above to compare the same room across booking sites, including taxes and cancellation terms.
