Accepted Answer

All perfect praise be to Allah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allah, and that Muhammad is His slave and Messenger.

If the hotel is renting rooms for permissible purposes, but some people rent rooms and then drink alcohol and commit Zina (fornication or adultery) without the knowledge of the hotel officials; then there is nothing wrong with you in working in the hotel as an accountant or manager.

For more benefit, please refer to Fataawa 82250 and 308935.

Allah Knows best.
