I think that's fine. Why do you just stay 4 nights in Hangzhou at first? You arrive in Hangzhou late at night, but there is till airport bus to the city center and then you can take a taxi to your hotel. Well, just offer another choice. Yours are fine.

Booking tickets one or two days in advance is suggested, since it will be difficult for you to get a ticket at spot at that time. Not all the taxi drivers would like to run to another city, and it may cost very expensive that day. You should try to get the train ticket first and bus is the secondary choice.

You could take the shuttle bus directly. It is suggested that you catch the one departing from Zhongshan Dasha, Renmin Road, Suzhou at 07:45. The journey is about 3 hours at least.
