Hetzner is the default EU value pick for developers who know Linux. Contabo and OVHcloud compete on raw capacity in German and French datacenters. DigitalOcean has Amsterdam and Frankfurt but prices in USD — factor the exchange rate. Hostinger offers Vilnius and Amsterdam with promo pricing that renews higher. For pure EU residency and budget, start with Hetzner; for US-managed teams needing an EU node, DigitalOcean is the easier add.
