Sétif is a good place to stay if you want to visit the nearby Roman ruins at Djémila.

There are a few interesting sites in Sétif. Ain El Fouara fountain was moved from the Louvre to Sétif in 1898. The Byzantine citadel is a carved stone wall, made of huge block of cut stone. It is all that remains of the Byzantine fortress that used to stand there.

The Park Mall is the largest shopping mall in Algeria and offers a wide variety of shops and services. It was opened in 2016. Other important services are located at the main street, Ave 8 Mai 1945, except for the bus station, which is 50 meters to the south. It serves all major destinations in Algeria, but for the Roman ruins you need the bus to El Ouelma which leaves from the railway station, about 150 meters away. There is also a amusement park in Sétif.

The main street was named after the 8 May 1945 protests and massacre, which was one of the causes of the Algerian war.

Accommodation and restaurants are available in Sétif.
