It’s an image of a hotel hallway carpet that is black in colour with a purple-lined 3D pattern.

According to the Nerdist, The chaotic carpets are courtesy of the Euronova Arthotel in Cologne, Germany. But while Reddit surmised it was a classic solution to the oft-broken “no running in the hall” rule, it doesn’t seem to be the case here. This funky rug not only graces the hall but also appears in the hotel rooms and conference rooms.

The purple pattern in the original image replicates throughout the hotel’s rooms.

Euronova Arthotel is set in Cologne, 4 km from the roman-catholic Cologne Cathedral. Situated in the Zollstock district, the venue is set 3.1 km from the waterside Cologne Chocolate Museum.

Their hotel rooms have television, free Wi-Fi, and smoke detectors for guests. The restaurant is daily open for breakfast. BU1 offers a Mediterranean dinner. The venue has a bar with a spacious terrace and a lounge. Bernkasteler Strasse bus stop, offering a direct link to the city attractions and main places, is a 5-minute walk from Euronova Arthotel. The accommodation has a flat-screen TV and a bar.
