Learn French: Combien coûte une chambre pour deux nuits ? - How much does a room for two nights cost?

In English, we use 'does' and split the verb: 'How much does a room cost?' In French, a common and natural way to ask the price of something is to say Combien coûte (How much costs) followed directly by the item. You don't need a helper word like 'does'!

Does une chambre mean any room in a building?

Is pour the right word to use for 'for' when talking about time?

Yes, when you are talking about a planned duration in the future—like booking a stay 'for two nights'—pour is exactly the right word to use.

How can I use Je voudrais with this question to make a polite booking?

This sentence is a direct question about price, so it doesn't use Je voudrais (I would like) on its own. To make a complete, polite request, you can combine them: Bonjour, je voudrais une chambre. Combien coûte une chambre pour deux nuits ? (Hello, I would like a room. How much does a room for two nights cost?).
