Yea Right. 2 Jews have 3 opinions , 10 forget about it.

problem is not too many places where you will find a Hotel near by a shul, and that will have take-out or restaurants to boot.

Places that fit the bill Pico-Robertson in LA; Savannah,Ga; Miami; DC; Scottsdale,Az; Vegas

out of them all price wise Savannah is probably the cheapest and no full service Hotel but rather the likes of Fairfield Inn, Hampton Inn, Homewood Suites or Residence Inn. no restaurants but a Caterer is available

DC over the weekend is cheap but the weather is well its winter time, but at least you have your choice of some really nice Full Service Hotels

Vegas has a La Quinta suites next door to a shul but its far from the strip and far from being cheap, could get some nice rooms at teh top hotels for the same $$

I used to have a rep come from Israel who kept Kosher and observed the Sabbath. He would move into the La Jolla Residence Inn on Friday afternoon, as he could walk to temple from there.

I believe that Adat Yehurun is orthodox. Here are the walking directions from Marriott Residence Inn and the Sheraton (formerly a Radisson). Further away are the La Jolla Marriott and the Hyatt.

There is also a conservative synagogue, Beth-El.
