London VPS plans

Choose your Linux VPS

Every plan is self-managed with full root access, unmetered bandwidth and free DDoS protection. New customers get 50% off the first month; the standard rate is shown next to it, because a price that quietly doubles later is no offer at all.

Commit for longer and pay less — up to 50% off the standard monthly rate. No minimum term on any of them.

Backup allowance is the storage set aside for your snapshots, not extra disk on the server. Every operating system is free. Not sure which plan fits? Tell us what you want to run and we will say which one we would put you on.

Self-managed UK NVMe SSD VPS hosting, ready when you are

Our high-quality, professional-grade UK NVME SSD VPS Servers are ready when you are. Every plan we offer at hostworld is entirely self-managed for your convenience, with around-the-clock support should you happen to need us. With a guarantee of 99.9% uptime, high-speed connectivity, and stellar performance, our London VPS server plans are completely customisable to suit your needs. Looking for something truly bespoke? Our sales team would be happy to help find a VPS hosting UK server to suit your needs. Drop us a line today.

Here are a few reasons why so many people choose us…

Why choose a Hostworld VPS?

No Contracts

We don't lock you into long-term agreements. Cancel anytime with no penalties or fees. Fasthosts asks for twelve months on every VPS they sell.

Your Data Stays in the UK

Your server sits in our own UK data centre, not in Germany or the US. If UK data residency is a requirement for you, the cheaper European hosts cannot meet it.

High Performance

We use the latest NVMe SSD technology and high-spec server hardware for the fastest performance possible.

99.9% Uptime

Our VPS servers are optimised with the latest RAID redundancy to minimise downtime. We publish what our own monitoring records on our status page.

DDoS Protection

Our UK network uses Arbor in-line DDoS protection for world-class threat mitigation.

Maximum Security

24/7 manned data centres, CCTV monitoring, and advanced breach detection systems.

Owned and run by us

Your server, in our own UK data centre

We own and operate the infrastructure your VPS runs on, including the Maidenhead data centre it sits in. That is why there is no minimum term, why support is our own team rather than a reseller's, and why we can tell you exactly where your data is.

What is so good about our UK VPS services?

Our UK-based Virtual Private Servers are the ideal option if you're looking for a powerful hosting solution for your website. With an in-built operating system, our London VPS services offer a flexible and practical way to enhance performance, improve speed, and ensure everything is running 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Add on our expert support when you need us, and that's a pretty good deal.

Because we both own and operate our own VPS infrastructure, including our Maidenhead, Berkshire datacentre — a short hop from London and low-latency to it — we're equipped to offer a high standard of service. We have the control, and that means you get better service all around. More features, more support, more reliability. If you're considering moving to a VPS solution for your website, our NVMe SSD drives and KVM virtualisation technology are exactly what you need to get the best performance out of your platform.

All VPS plans include the following features.

Robust, feature-rich virtual private servers

We don't just provide basic VPS plans here at hostworld, we provide you with robust, feature rich virtual private servers as well as:

No contracts

No minimum term and no exit fee, so you can cancel the moment the server stops being useful to you.

Instant activation

Your server is built and booted automatically, so it is ready to log into about a minute after you order.

Free automatic backups

Scheduled backups run without you configuring anything, and they cost nothing on top of the plan price.

IPv6 Support

Full IPv6 connectivity alongside your IPv4 address, ready for the services and networks that now expect it.

24/7 expert support

Real engineers on our own UK team, reachable by ticket and live chat at any hour of the day or night.

Choice of operating systems

Pick your operating system at checkout, and reinstall to a different one later from the control panel whenever you want.

DDoS Protection

In-line filtering from Arbor sits in front of our network, absorbing attacks before they ever reach your server.

Custom ISO

Upload your own installation image and mount it, so you are never limited to the templates we happen to provide.

Powered by KVM

Full hardware virtualisation, which means your RAM, CPU and disk are genuinely yours rather than shared out of a container.

Pre-install a control panel

Add cPanel, CentOS Web Panel, Webmin, Plesk, Interworx or ISPConfig during checkout and it is configured before your first login.

Industry leading control panel

Reboot, rebuild, mount media and watch your resource usage yourself, without having to open a ticket for routine jobs.

Tailor your VPS

Adjust the specification to what you actually need, rather than paying for a fixed bundle that only nearly fits.

Upgrade & downgrade at any time

Move up or down a plan as your workload changes, and your data stays exactly where it is.

Fast 1 Gbps uplink

A gigabit port onto a network that has been independently rated among the fastest in the UK.

Get to know our data centre.

Behind every London VPS server is a datacentre

Behind every London VPS server is a datacentre. At hostworld, we take our hosting responsibilities seriously, which is why we use the best options available in the UK today. Based in Maidenhead, Berkshire — just west of London and low-latency to it — our 2,800m² purpose-built datacentre contains nine different data halls and offers high-speed, secure connections for hundreds of VPS servers. What makes our datacentre so great, you ask? Here are just some of the reasons we're a strong choice for UK VPS hosting:

24-hour security including intruder alarms and biometric access
On-site Network Operations Centre running around the clock
Six generators to keep power going no matter what
Technical support available any hour of the day or night
Latest datacentre technology with 24/7 monitoring
Complete HVAC system to prevent failure
Diverse fibre routing and cable network
Completely carrier-neutral – for now, and for forever

Operating systems

Install any of these, or bring your own ISO

AlmaLinux

Built for stability, performance and long-term support, AlmaLinux is a rock-solid choice for VPS hosting. As a 1:1 binary-compatible fork of Red Hat Enterprise Linux, it offers the same enterprise-grade reliability and security you would expect from RHEL. It is the natural home for anyone who used to run CentOS.

Available: AlmaLinux 10.1, 9.7, 8.10 (64-bit, free)

Ubuntu

Ubuntu is the most widely deployed Linux server distribution, which means almost every tutorial, Docker image and deployment guide you find assumes it. Based on Debian and composed of free and open-source software, it gives you a flexible, well-documented and stable hosting environment.

Available: Ubuntu 26.04 LTS, 24.04 LTS, 22.04 LTS, 20.04 LTS (64-bit, free)

Debian

Debian is ideal for servers thanks to a combination of stability and long release cycles: more time in testing means fewer surprises in production. Easy upgrades and a conservative approach to change make it a dependable choice for anything you would rather not babysit.

Available: Debian 13, 12, 11 (64-bit, free)

Fedora

Fedora gives you a well-designed, customisable and secure platform that tracks upstream closely, so you get new kernel and toolchain versions long before the enterprise distributions pick them up. Good when you want current packages and are happy with a shorter support window.

Available: Fedora 42 (64-bit, free)

Custom ISO

Got your own? Upload a custom ISO and we’ll mount it on your VPS and install any OS you like, so you are never limited to the templates we happen to provide.

Legacy, not recommended: CentOS 7 is still available if you are migrating an existing workload, but it is past end of life and gets no further security updates upstream. Choose AlmaLinux for anything new.

Every operating system is free, and you can reinstall to a different one from the control panel whenever you like. Optionally pre-install a control panel at checkout: cPanel (Solo, Admin, Pro or Premier), CentOS Web Panel, Webmin, Plesk, Interworx or ISPConfig.

Not sure which VPS you need?

Tell us what you want to run and our UK team will tell you which plan fits, including when the cheapest one is enough. No minimum term on any of them, so you are not committing to anything.
