Hotel Sidi Driss | Matmata Ancienne, Tunisia | Atlas Obscura Hotel Sidi Driss should be on a map of every hard core Star War fan. It is the place where many of the most memorable scenes of the saga were filmed and fans will no doubt recognize Luke Skywalker’s childhood home on the planet of Tatooine. Of course for anyone who grew up around the Sidi Driss hotel and Berber architecture the Star Wars planet of Tattooine looks less like an alien planet and more like the old neighborhood.
