It takes around 5-6 hours by road to reach Coorg from Bangalore. From my personal experience, I would suggest you spend at least 3 days in Coorg as the tourist attractions are quite far from each other.
Here is a detailed guide to Coorg - https://bulbulonthewing.com/coorg-when-you-are-in-the-coffee-capital-of-india/
Below are two properties that you can choose from.
1) Amritara Ambatty - https://bulbulonthewing.com/amritara-ambatty-greens-resort-coorg/
2) The Birchwood Retreat - https://bulbulonthewing.com/the-birchwood-retreat-coorg-best-hotels-in-india/

Hi Arya, Goa, Rajasthan and Himachal Pradesh are some of the best states to visit in India in December. Goa is teeming with tourists from all over the world during the Christmas and New Year's holiday season, visit there if you are looking for fun and parties. Rajasthan again has a pleasant weather in winters, visit here to immerse in culture and Indian heritage. Himachal Pradesh is snow laden in winters, if you want to have a beautiful snow experience, Himachal is the place.

Extreme winters and summers are never suitable I suppose, springs and autumn provides best time .. if you are opting for winters then nights could chilling though

The cooler months from October-March is the peak season thus the best time to visit, but a lot of people are opting to travel even during monsoon.
