This question is for anyone familiar with the lay of the land in A'dam.
My husband and I are going there this coming Monday. We're staying at the Hem Hotel. 250 Voorburgstraat. I've referred to a few coffeeshop guide maps and our hotel area isn't included in any of them. Is there a coffeeshop very close to our hotel?

We're lazy bastards and want to score a bit of smoke as soon as we check into the hotel. We plan on visiting as many of the more notable shops during our stay.

Thanks for any advice, tips or clues.

Peace,
Kristen
my biggest complaint about the lay-out of coffee shops in amsterdam is the fact that they are so far in between, im sure you'll find one near the area but for a true scent of the culture id go out exploreing....also many other cities across the netherlands and europe have coffee shops....there less of a hassel and more on the quite side...my personal favorite is a town called Masstrict.. they have a little area next to the shops downtown with a good ten or more shops all around each other...

have fun!! and be sure to take advantage of the good hash!
