Help me with a carpet dilemma

Gonna need to replace the carpet in our new house fairly soon. It's a 6m long lounge which flows through a wide arch into a dining room so the total width of lounge plus dining room 6.5m. There are no joins in the existing carpet that I can see. Yet I can't find any 6 metre wide carpets... how do hotels etc do it? I'm getting concerned how much it's going to cost lol and I REALLY don't want a join.

I've just had carpet fitted and there is a join due to the width but you would never know, I can see it at all, not sure how they did it but I did see them at one point using a heat appliance to join the carpets, no matter how hard I look I cannot see it, pretty amazed by their skill.

It helps I have a lower pile and it's plain not pattered they told me.

I've also got lovely recycled underlay which is very bouncy.

Ours is also joined but I wouldn't know if I hadn't seen it be done.

Most vast areas will have a join. The fact you don't see it means it's been done properly
