The Room of Rewards is a secret room at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry that notes students' various achievements. It can be accessed via the portrait of Vindictus Veridian on the Grand Staircase. It is not to be confused with the Trophy Room.

History[]

In 1995, Moaning Myrtle showed Harry Potter where the secret entrance to the room was located. Although Veridian's portrait initially refused to grant them access, Hermione Granger persuaded him by telling Vindictus that Harry would talk Myrtle into hanging around his portrait regularly. Not wishing to be bothered by the wailing ghost, Vindictus gave in to her blackmail and grudgingly allowed them to enter, telling Hermione that she "had a vindictive streak to be admired."
