Hotel Sidi Driss

Introduction

Hotel Sidi Driss is located in Matmata in southern Tunisia, the most famous cave dwelling in the area, and was used as the filming location for the childhood home of Luke Skywalker in Star Wars. This hotel utilizes the traditional Berber underground cave construction method, carving rooms several meters deep into the rock formation, creating a naturally temperature-controlled space that is warm in winter and cool in summer. The cave rooms are simply furnished yet full of authentic Berber charm, with white domed walls, colorful woven tapestries, and traditional wooden doors that transport visitors to another time and space. Spending a night here offers a rare opportunity to experience the unique underground lifestyle of the Berber people, and is a must-visit pilgrimage site for Star Wars fans.
