Question

If someone eats on Shabbat with a group in a dining room and goes home to sleep, where should they light Shabbat candles?

Answer

In both places, one fulfills the obligation, but it is preferable to light in the dining room. If they are Sephardic, one person can recite the blessing for everyone.
