What makes a bed 'hot'?   

Poly foam?   Poly fill?   Latex?   Down feathers?

How much do you weigh? It may be that any mattress you sleep on is hot- heavy people sleep hotter, no matter what mattress. Sorry to be blunt (I'm not exactly skinny myself) That being said, a lot of people don't know how cool to keep their bedrooms. About 65-68 degrees is ideal (see link)

Depends what kind of mattress do you have? If it is foam, that may be the reason why it is so hot at night. I've tried all of the above. I sleep naked and I use a fan. Shedding clothes definitely helps but the fan doesn't not remove the heat between my body and the mattress. Somthing like bamboo sheets may help to reduce heat.
