It's not necessary to have a car but it makes life easier.
Although I find that most travelers opt for Tyson's Corner. A lot more corporate offices out in that direction. Reaches a wider market for those who live beyond the Beltway. And hotel rates are generally lower. Tyson's Corner is also "closer" to Dulles Airport. You must have rent a car if you're out here.
But if you're adamant about being in the Capital. Then there are a few hotels near Dupont/Adams Morgan that work well because it's a popular spot for conventions and conferences. At this point, you might as well cab/metro everywhere.

Thank you so much omakse!
I am thinking about touring the DC area soon as well.
