For colocation or rent?
I recommend myLoc in Düsseldorf.
I would think that pretty every german colo will meet your latency desires. After all, a massive part of european traffic gets routed through Frankfurt anyway. And as Germany isn't that big a country and has pretty solid backbones and connectivity to AMS and LON no matter whether Munich, Frankfurt, Duesseldorf, Berlin, Hamburg comes down to a difference of just a couple milliseconds.
It would seem though that colo has a strong tendency to be more expensive in Frankfurt, where DeCIX, the planets largest IX, is located. Probably your chances to find high quality colo for attractive prices are better in Munich or Nuernberg.
@bsdguy
You can get colocation (Tower/1U) in Frankfurt for 30€, so not that much.
What do you guys think of IP-Projects/Accelerated IT Services?
They are good.
I have a couple of servers with them, very good so far.
Not really, they have serious speedproblems during peak times.
I can recommend the following:
Core-Backbone.com ( 1510 GBit/s network capacity. They can also offer colo at many of their pop's. They where also able to filter an 800 GBit/s DDOS attack without any downtime. )
23media.de
Providerservice.com
Accelerated ( IP-Projects.de/Netcix.de/Datafabrik.de )
First-Colo.de
http://www.hetzner.de/en/hosting/produktmatrix/racks ?
Not even the CF DDoS where that large, whatever they told you is wrong...
Slightly above my budget, although I appreciate the feedback!

Global Switch FFM
Accelerated FFM
First Colo FFM
Interwerk FFM
Telehouse FFM
MyLoc DUES
Comtrance DUES
Level3 DUES
A good way to find one is:

I'd like to go with myLoc/Webtropia, mainly due to their pricing, but the reviews I've read so far are rather negative. I'm looking for a stable network, which is something they seem to struggle with.
IP-Projects/Accelerated on the other hand tends to get pretty good reviews in this regard, but their pricing just doesn't feel right for what they have to offer (in terms of hardware).
First Colo seems rather expensive for my needs, but IIRC 23media.de is behind Global Switch, which might be something worth looking into, thank you.
@george: What pricing are you looking for if FirstColo/Accelerated and Telehouse are too expensive for your needs?
I can't really give you an exact number, but I'd like to stay bellow the 70€-ish mark. This is not really the point of this discussion though, I'm just curious what people around here recommend. Thanks!
Huh? myLoc (and sisters) have GTS and Level3 pipes which is among the best in Europe and globally.
And their dedi shop offers plenty dedis under 70/mo.
I don't know, simply just try to lookup myloc/webtropia on this site and you are gonna end up with bunch of negative comments.
It's not just this site a quick Google lookup will show up pretty much the same, but I could be wrong, perhaps the quality of their service improved over the past few years/months.
I didn't have any issues the past year with them. Don't know about long time monitoring, but their services were always up when I wanted to use it.
@george no Problem If you need low prices, perhaps Interwerk (active-servers) is something for you / him.
