There&#8217;s the renowned Jasper Kitchen for breakfasts, lunches and events.\u00a0 Two points worth considering when looking for a Melbourne hotel. This one offers complimentary access to a health club, and the big attraction in my book (the Jasper point of difference), is the Jasper art gallery, featuring the works of leading artists. The current display features the works of\u00a0 Rebecca Pearson.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Out of 10, I&#8217;d give the Jasper Hotel &#8217;11&#8217;.\u00a0\u00a0 Reservations to 1800 468 359 or go visit <a href=\"http:\/\/jasperhotel.com.au\/\">jasperhotel.com.au<\/a> and for general enquiries ring (03) 8327 2777. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p><b>Anzacs 2012<br \/><\/b><br \/>Check out the three-day Anzac Day package which combines the Dawn Service and a selection of\u00a0 Turkey&#8217;s touring highlights.\u00a0 Departure date is\u00a0 April 24 2012 from Istanbul.
