tl;dr: Hetzner is raising prices on dedicated servers and cloud instances starting June 15, 2026, applying to new orders and cloud rescales (existing orders keep old pricing). Cloud server increases are particularly steep, with CCX (dedicated vCPU) instances roughly doubling or tripling in price—e.g., CCX13 jumps from €15.99 to €42.99/month, and CCX63 from €374.49 to €853.49/month. CPX and CAX ARM instances also see significant hikes, while standard CX shared instances rise more modestly (~25-40%).
HN Discussion:
  • Price increases reflect real hardware cost rises in RAM and disk
  • The 2-3x hike is excessive and unjustified, unlike a reasonable 25-50% bump
  • Users are looking to migrate to cheaper alternative providers
  • Hetzner was undercharging and is finally capturing market value
  • ~Hetzner has stagnated on hardware refreshes, reducing their value proposition
