I don't usually bother leaving reviews because the hosts I've used in the past have never really differentiated themselves from the sea of other Minecraft hosting companies out there. TheSmelter however is the first hosting company that has provided me flawless service from the very first day to the last.
First of all, the admin panel is the fastest I've seen and offers very convenient options for automated 1-click installation of most popular versions of Minecraft and its modpacks. While the service packages are a bit pricey, the cost is easily compensated for by high quality hardware that provide great stability and performance, even while running very expensive modpacks (100+ mods). Indeed, in my 5 months of using TheSmelter hosting, I have experienced virtually no lag and as far as I can remember, 100% uptime.
What made me leave this review however was what happened this morning. I received my monthly server invoice, which I had set up to automatically charge through Paypal. Unfortunately, my friends and I had moved on from Minecraft over the last few weeks but I had forgotten to cancel the subscription. I went onto the website and cancelled my service right away, a bit annoyed about having to pay for the extra month, but I immediately received an email stating the following:
Hello [...],
We're sorry to see you go.
We have refunded your latest payment as it obviously was not intended.
[...]
Now I don't know if this is common practice among Minecraft hosts but I was pleasantly surprised. I never had to deal with Customer Service because I never had any issues with my server, but that to me was a sign of a company that cares about its customers.
And thus for those reasons, I would recommend TheSmelter to anyone looking for a solid Minecraft host, especially to run modpacks.

I've been using this host for about a week now; just something for a couple friends to play hexxit. Pricing is good and the only time the server lags is when I'm loading a LOT of chunks-- which is expected for what I've got. I contacted customer service once prior to ordering and the response was quick! Their site is easy to navigate and everything is clearly stated.
All in all I am very pleased with Smelter and would definitely suggest it.
We're happy that your experience with us is better than with your previous host.

How many player can join my server with this service plan?
How many player can join my server with this service plan?
Hello Umbram.
These plans are billed by RAM, so the number of players will depend on how much RAM you buy, how big your map is and how many plugins you use on your server.
As a rule of thumb, a rough estimation is around 10 players per 1GB of RAM, on a small map with no plugins.
We give you the option to customise your player slots and easily upgrade or downgrade your RAM amount, so you can make your plan fit your exact needs.
Don't hesitate to contact us Link Removed, through a ticket, live chat or twitter for more information.
