Excellent question, Josephine!  The quote from Quick Quotes is:

"Go straight into a certain room, mentioned in book four which has certain magical properties Harry hasn't discovered yet! "

I also suspected it was the Room of Requirement but wonder when Harry may have been there in book four?  Perhaps she meant the Prefects Bathroom instead? It sounded marvelous to me! :)
