VPS and dedicated servers in Bucharest
Bucharest punches well above its weight in the European hosting market. Romania has unusually mature wholesale connectivity for its market size, and InterLAN and RoNIX are the two major Romanian peering points. Our Bucharest location offers KVM VPS and streaming VPS, dedicated servers are available in Romania, and 1 Tbps always-on DDoS protection (L3/L4) is included.
Bucharest is the right answer for Eastern European audiences (Romania, Moldova, Bulgaria, parts of Ukraine), for cost-optimized EU hosting that still comes with 1 Tbps always-on DDoS protection (L3/L4), and for game-server hosting targeting Eastern European competitive scenes where the player base concentrates in Romania, Hungary, and Greece.

Latency from Bucharest
Round-trip times to major destinations. Single values were measured between our own servers on 12 October 2026 (20 pings in each direction); ranges are approximate.
| Destination | Round-trip time |
|---|---|
| Sofia (BIX.BG) | 7.5 ms |
| Vienna (VIX) | 17.8 ms |
| Frankfurt (DE-CIX) | 24.6 ms |
| Warsaw (PLIX) | 29.6 ms |
| Amsterdam (AMS-IX) | 29.7 ms |
| Istanbul (IX.tr) | 30-35 ms |
Ranges are approximate, based on typical fiber routing between metros. Real-world RTT varies with carrier path, traffic, and TCP retransmission.
02Use cases
Best for
Workloads that benefit most from a Bucharest deployment.
Game servers for Romanian, Hungarian, Bulgarian, and Greek player bases where regional latency beats Frankfurt by 15-25 ms.
DDoS-prone workloads (game lobbies, popular forums, VoIP) that benefit from the included 1 Tbps always-on DDoS protection (L3/L4).
Cost-optimized Eastern European e-commerce and SaaS where in-country hosting keeps the path to Romanian ISPs short.

04Questions
Frequently asked questions
Common questions about Bucharest deployments.
What datacenter is used in Bucharest?
We don't name the Bucharest facility on this page. If you need the exact site for a compliance review or latency planning, ask us by live chat or ticket before you order.
Is Bucharest a good location for DDoS-prone workloads?
Yes. 1 Tbps always-on DDoS protection (L3/L4) is included, and Romania is positioned as one of the more DDoS-resilient hosting markets in Europe. For projects that have been targets in the past (game lobbies, popular communities, certain VoIP services), Bucharest is a solid default.
How does Bucharest compare to Sofia?
The two are similar in cost profile and EU jurisdiction, and both offer VPS and dedicated servers. Sofia wins on latency to the southern Balkans and Greece, while Bucharest has our lowest VPS prices. For a single Eastern European location, Bucharest is the lower-cost default; for a replica in a second country, use both.
