New Delhi: Whenever you stay in a hotel, you must have noticed that a special kind of piece of cloth is laid on the edge or feet of the bed. It is usually a small part of a colorful, thick fabric, which looks completely different from the bedsheet.
Many times people consider it a part of decoration, but its role is not limited to just appearance. This piece of cloth is called "Bed Runner" in the hotel industry and there are many special reasons behind it. Let us know why this cloth is placed on the hotel bed.
To enhance decoration and beauty
The first purpose of the bed runner is to add to the beauty of the room. When a hotel room looks organized and elegant, it makes a good impression on the guests. This cloth adds a contrasting or theme-based color to the bed, making the room look more attractive and premium.

For cleanliness and safety
Many people keep coming and going in the hotel, and most of the people keep their belongings or sit on the foot part of the bed. In such a situation, the bed runner protects that part from getting dirty. If any trolley bag, shoes or any other item is kept on that part of the bed, then the bedsheet should not get spoiled – this cloth is laid for this purpose.
Helpful in maintaining hygiene
Washing and changing a bed runner is easier than a bedsheet. Since it covers a limited part of the bed, the hotel staff can clean it quickly and maintain hygiene.
