If there is a crematorium, I agree that it should take precedence, and I
can't imagine a crematorium without such a room. However, more often
than not, there is no crematorium while there is such a funeral hall
(quite often actually colloquially called a "chapel", but "chapel" falls
under the category "place of worship").

Funeral directors are a business, this is a public facility

associated to this kind of ceremonial place, but not necessarily.
Looking around my local area these have simply been mapped as
amenity=crematorium. They are publicly owned and have a chapel within
them.
They are used by all religions and non-religions.
