Largest Jewish community is in Silver Spring, which is a suburb of Washington. For tourists, best place to stay is in downtown Silver Spring, which has a metro stop and a nearby  shul in Woodside Park within walking distance.

The shul website also has alot of helpful tourist information

Things to do

Char Bar is open with a Kosher L’Pesach menu. The gorgeous Ritz (down the block) and St. Regis are available for 50K points (certs).

The shul (Kesher Israel) does not ask for proof of vaccination.

I was researching similar, best I found was Residence Inn Arlington Courthouse walkable to Chabad of Alexandria-Arlington, I think 12 minutes.  It didn't work out for other reasons, so I don't know how Shabbos-friendly it is.
I should add that I was looking for a kitchenette.
