It can be a few things. The thermostat could be sticking; the radiator could be clogged, etc.
Ben has good suggestions - replace the thermostat (only use an OEM thermostat). Get the cooling system flushed. If the car continues to run warm with a fresh thermostat, I'd suspect a clogged radiator.
Even with a sticking thermostat, the upper radiator hose will be hot. Everything is hot. If the thermostat were stuck completely closed, the temp gauge would go well into the red. So trying to troubleshoot hot from really hot in terms of thermostat or radiator is very hard.
