Hyper-V is probably the best for Windows shops but my concern is that it will just become Azure tied at some point. I could be wrong but somehow I don’t trust Microsoft to not screw everyone over.
Funny you should say this, because they are actually working on a Hyper-V stack with Intel’s Cloud Hypervisor (VMM) atop the Microsoft Hypervisor microkernel (MSHV) with support for Linux as the root partition (i.e. “Dom0”). No Windows/Azure required.

At this point the biggest hurdle is the microkernel being publicly released as a standalone component.
