Well I know this is not what you had in mind but white stars are hotter! If you where to compare, the blue stars would be hottest then the white stars, yellowish white, yellow orange then red. I know many people would have thought diffrently so face it our star (the sun) isn't the hottest.

Yellow stars are cooler than white, blue-white, or blue stars, but let's put things in perspective here: 6000 Kelvin is "cooler" than 10,000 Kelvin, but it's still hot enough to instantly vaporize any solid material.

No, blue stars are the hottest "ordinary" stars.

The absolute hottest are neutron stars, which generate little or no solar radiation.
