I am currently running Debian Stretch and MATE desktop. I have noticed a while back the hibernate option disappearing from desktop options and have found this does not work. Is there any reason for this not working on Debian Stretch or Debian Jessie or even other Linii I have tried ?

Hibernation (suspend-to-disk) works on some hardware, but whether it works
is very dependent on the combination of hardware, drivers and kernel,
and when it fails it leads to a bad user experience. Desktop environment
developers do not want to offer a feature by default while knowing that
it is unreliable (and not feasible for them to fix).
If you're using GNOME and your particular hardware can hibernate and
resume successfully, you might find
https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/755/hibernate-status-button/
useful.
