2-night voucher: BOM, JNB, or CPT??

My upcoming itinerary 4-nights each BOM, JNB, CPT;
Want to use my soon-to-expire Hyatt 2-night-any-level voucher;
As travel photographer shooting urban attractions, shopping, dining, etc.,
I prefer centralized lodging within walking distance of
(a) public transportation
(b) photo opps in hotel's own neighborhood
--not interested in airport & other isolated hotels--

Any advice from Hyatt veterans appreciated! ^ ^ ^

Why not check each city Hyatts ? look at where also you save the most money !

For BOM, there are a couple of Hyatts. Look at them and then if you have questions on locales, locals, shooting etc ask away !
Depending on your dates and location in BOM maybe able to hook you up with a published photographer too ! NO CHARGE.

No Hyatt in Capetown. Only one Hyatt in Jo'burg and Mumbai has 2. Neither would be considered in town, Grand Hyatt is nice property, I was treated quite well as diamond

BOM's Hyatts are near the airport. They are a 30 to 40 minute cab ride (longer on a tuk-tuk) to where you'll want to shoot.

Even though i'm a Hyatt Diamond, I still stayed at the Oberoi on Nariman Point. It was much closer to the Gate of India and other attractions.

I stayed at the Hyatt Regency for a few hours prior to my flight out. Excellent Diamond recognition but it's not worth using your free nights at. Rates are usually quite low.

Would you be able to take a trip out of BOM? The Park Hyatt or Grand Hyatt in Goa are both excellent options to use your free nights at. Goa is an 50 minute flight out of BOM.
