From Hangzhou, there are two kinds of buses, which will reach both Tangkou and Tunxi. There are four buses for Tangkou from Hangzhou and 17 buses for Tunxi. The buses for Tangkou does not stop at Tunxi.
Your hotel is Xihai Hotel, I know and the Taiping cable car is truly the closest one, but buses from Tunxi to the Songgu'an may be hard to tranfer. It may be a little bit complex if you do not know Chinese.
Since you go there for climbing the mountain, right? I think no matter where do you start, you will finish most of the senic spot on the mountain, so I suggested to use the Cloud Valley Telpher to the top and then climb to the hotel at the same time having sightseeing.
If you take the buses for Tangkou, it will be very close to the South Gate of the Yellow Mountain and it is easy to get. After you enter the gate, shuttle buses can easily take you to reach the bottom station of the Cloud Valley Telpher.
Hope my explain is useful and helpful for you. Hope you can have a nice trip at that wonderful place.
