Depends how you want to judge "most suitable" ... license? most users? fewer known bugs?. Most used doesn't necessarily mean most reliable, but then it can mean there are more people who understand its problem areas and how to avoid them. All would likely do the job for many applications, though some have long-standing issues. DataNucleus JPA is another choice for you to consider, providing for all that you need there but also allowing much more flexibility than others in terms of input and in terms of which datastores you can persist to, should these be factors in your application.

JPA 2.0 Implementations comparison : Hibernate 3.5 vs EclipseLink 2 vs OpenJPA 2

I believe that Hibernate is actually more popular nowadays, and many industries are using Hibernate.
