Parting Room Explanation: I supose that this room is called the Parting Room, where relatives, close friends, etc. part from their beloved ones for ever. The meaning of parting is deeper than farewell, goodbye, etc. I think that any other term would sound odd, but I might be mistaken :-) |

Farewell room Explanation: Usually when people are dying, their relatives say their farewells to them, so I think this might work here. |
