I have faced this situation at work many times and I well understand your frustration. A couple of thoughts.
1) It doesn't make you look stupid when he books it and no shows. Other employees know darn well it is the boss and not us that does it. It does however put you in a very difficult position and it's certainly not pleasant, so I can see why it bothers you so.
2) I would try having a gentle conversation with him, explaining that you are sure he doesn't mean to be disrespectful to his employees when he boots them from a conference room unnecessarily and that you would like to try to reduce this to emergency only situations and is there anything he can suggest so that you are both accommodated? (Is there actually no other conference room available or does he just believe that the room in his area is his 24/7 no matter what?)
3) Unfortunately if he is the boss and he does have the rank to do it, there's not much you can do about it if he insists on continuing to do it. Just give a gentle apology to those that get bumped and explain that there is nothing you can do about it.
Sorry you are facing this situation.
