All kinds of bears technically don't hibernate. They enter into a phase called torpor which is like a deep slumber but they can awaken and often do from their slumber.
Panda Bears, sun bears, and sloth bears do not hybernate.

There is no bear that truly hibernates. It is a common misconception that bears hibernate during the winter. While bears tend to slow down during the winter, they are not true hibernators. Black bears, Grizzly bears and Brown bears do go into a deep sleep during the winter months, known as torpor. Polar bears neither hibernate nor go into a topor, except females with cubs.

Hibernation is when animals “sleep” through the winter. During this sleep, the animals will not wake up when they hear a loud noise or even if they are moved or touched. While in torpor, the animal can wake up quickly and easily. During true hibernation, the animal’s body temperature drops to match the outside temperature, and their heart rate and rate of breathing slows down. During the bear’s dormant state or torpor, their heart rate is extremely low but their body temperature is relatively high, and they won’t eat or release bodily waste.

Yes. They sleep at night or whenever they're tired like most mammals do.
