World Travel has some pretty neat travel stories on various topics for their
readers. This month I found a few that caught my eye, but I picked this one on
the
Hotel
Sidi Driss in Matmata, Tunisia for today. Amanda Kendle finds herself in a ‘real troglodyte room, dug
from stone’ with her Star Wars obsessed boyfriend. I suppose she’s nailed two of the main highlights in
staying at the Hotel Sidi Driss, but I wanted more.
Isn’t there a lot more to say about a hotel that is comprised of several underground caves? Sure it may
attract Star War fans as the film was shot there many years ago, but we’re talking about lodging underground
folks! Let’s move past the movie. Amanda also mentions other small facts about the town which is built
of troglodyte homes and the mix of guest staying in the Sidi Driss. In short it’s an okay piece to get you
going and consider underground lodging.
