Troglodyte
Hotel Sidi Driss is a perfect example of troglodyte architecture, a traditional form of construction where homes are carved into the earth to provide natural insulation from the harsh desert climate. The hotel’s three interconnected caves are built into the soft clay of the surrounding landscape, offering a unique and cool atmosphere. The interiors are simple yet functional, reflecting the nomadic lifestyle of the Berber people. This architectural style is not only sustainable but also showcases the ingenuity of a bygone era, blending harmoniously with the desert surroundings.
