I end up with noticeable transition points in the doorways? Any
suggestions on how to avoid this problem?

If there's a threshold piece, you could remove it, finish it
separately, and reinstall it to cover the transition line in the
finish.

If not, you mentioned doing three rooms on a hallway. So you should
only need to do one "cold joint", since you can start in a room, work
towards the hallway, do the hallway, and then do a second room. I
like the suggestion of trying to make the cold joint exactly coincide
with the edge of a board, but I don't really know.
