French term or phrase: salle invités
Ce restaurant interentreprises comprendra salle de restaurant, *salles invités* et cafétéria. Would this be what in American English we call banquet rooms, that is rooms in a restaurant for holding private banquets?

hosting room


Explanation:
J'utiliserais ce terme simplement parce que la salle en question n'est pas nécessairement destinée à des partys ou des fonctions officielles. Il s'agirait d'un terme beaucoup plus large pour englober toutes sortes d'usage.
Main Entry: 4host
Function: transitive verb
Date: 15th century
1 : to serve as host to, at, or for <host friends> <host a dinner>
