I’ve just completed the bookings for our China trip—did I make the right choices?

This year, we’re traveling to China for the first time, and here’s our itinerary. We’d love to hear your thoughts—any general recommendations or suggestions for changes? What do you think about the hotels? Also, as food enthusiasts, we’re on the lookout for exceptional dining experiences. While I haven’t done the research yet, Ultraviolet, Taian Table, and The Chairman are already on our list.

Our itinerary:

Hong Kong (Rosewood) – 4 nights

Guilin (Shangri-La) – 1 night

Yangshuo (Sugar House) – 1 night

Beijing (Mandarin Oriental) – 4 nights

Hangzhou (Aman) – 2 nights

Suzhou (Four Seasons) – 2 nights

Shanghai (Bvlgari) – 3 nights

Any recommendations for must-visit restaurants or other tips would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!!

EDIT: Thank you all for sharing your recommendations , experiences, etc. - it was very interesting to read through them.

As for Shanghai, I’m still uncertain about my hotel choice. While I prefer the Bulgari’s style (the Peninsula feels like a large, somewhat dated concrete complex), many people recommended the Peninsula. They’re offering a spacious Grand Deluxe River Suite (120 sqm) for the same price as my current room at the Bulgari (60 sqm). However, since I won’t be spending much time at the hotel, I’m still undecided. Service is pretty important to me, both hotels seem equally good at that aspect.
