Very good service
Servers work very well, no hidden costs, all around a very good service!
Great servers and reliable
Great servers and reliable. Now I know where to host my 2 week phase Minecraft server.
Free go brrrr
the website has, compared to aternos, basically no ads- which is already a boost on performance for the person hosting the server. well, not the server itself, but yanno.
i love play.hosting. much better than aternos, it has short queues, user friendly interfaces, no restrictions on server files, a heck load of server resources, and the only issue i'd say, is that some of my friends have extreme lag. i don't know why, even now. perhaps there's a reason.
Amazing service
Very easy to use, and many tutorials to help understand! A godsend for any small friend groups who are either impatient or have crappy pcs
I use a lite tier VPS and it's great
I use a lite tier VPS and it's great, the control panel fails to mention that the recovery mode sends an email with the credentials but apart from that it's been smooth sailing (aside from a bit of user error)
This is an Excellent hosting platform
This is an Excellent hosting platform, all things considered. Everything was very easy to set up. Would recommend, thanks Tubbo!
Very helpfull thanks tubbo and The Team…
Very helpfull thanks tubbo and The Team for all good given by this!
Play.Hosting is the best
Play.Hosting is the best. Best of the best. No criticism to other free Minecraft hosting websites, but this tops it. I'm talking customization, fast and easy file managing, and just overall good website and hosting material.
FREE SERVER THAT DOESN'T CRASH WITH 2 PEOPLE ONLINE
Its completely free! The mods and plugins were easy to add. The lag was not bad for a completely free server provider. The ques were sometimes really long but most of the time they took at most 10 minutes. I'm very pleased and use play.hosting for all of my servers with my friends. Would reccommend!
i think its better than aternos
in my opinion its better than aternos, its just that you need to know more about server hosting for this compared to aternos. overall its a good experience for it being free.
also, you only have to wait once a day, and the rest of the delays when opening the server is only around 2-3 minutes.
Super Good!
Definitely the best free hosting, great performance, easy server customization, and good looking interface. Its just so good compared to other free server hosters
Amazing Service - Great Reward
Play Hosting was amazing in providing a free service! with wait times only being around 5-10 minutes to startup and setup! Especially nice when you have a 2 week minecraft phase with friends but don't wanna pay for a full month!

brother this is the best minecraft host…
brother this is the best minecraft host for FREE. Everyone needs this. Ho ever sees this review needs to use it, but honesly its not perfect sometimes they got some down times... but it makes up of how good it is!
A really great hosting provider!
A really great hosting provider!
The performance is outstanding. I use a paid VPS. One of the best and most affordable providers I know.
Reliable, stable and FREE
Server hosting works reliably, free hosting is the best I have found out there (and I have tried just about everything you can find).
Even when hosting for as many as 12 people, the servers hold strong.
Extremely underrated feature: you can upload custom files (a godsend especially for those that make their own mods & plugins).
The qeue thing can get slightly annoying at times, it feels a bit inconsistent when it gets triggered, but it's nothing too bad (especially considering the "competition").
Thanks for keeping this free.
