have booked the room vs the room has been booked

Both phrases are correct, but they're used in different contexts. 'Have booked the room' is used when someone is actively stating that they've made a reservation. On the other hand, 'the room has been booked' is used when referring to the passive action of the room being reserved by someone else.
