The Sun is one. Polaris is another.
There are many examples and different types of star can have the same color.
In fact, it's often hard to detect much color with the unaided eye.
Of course, you should not lookdirectly at the Sun.
The Sun's apparent color is affected by our atmosphere. Because of that, the Sun often looks red at sunrise or sunset.

What color will an interstellar gas cloud composed of hydrogen glow?
It all depends on how close stars are to the cloud, and how intense those stars radiate energy. A nebula will glow with a blue colour if it simply reflects starlight (the blue is from the same mechanism our sky is blue, from the scattering of light). This occurs when a nebula is too far from stars, or the stars are too cool to generate enough radiation to ionize the hydrogen. Nebula will glow red if they are close enough to stars to absorb energy - that energy is re-emitted by the nebula as red (from the ionization of the hydrogen, which then glows red).
