So I was wondering which server host is still considered the best for tf2 in EU? NFO, Hiperz, something else?
Money isn't a big issue if the quality provided is good and it's ddos-protected.

Can't guarantee on this from myself, but I've heard that hiperz doesn't provide as good of quality anymore as they used to years ago, so you could avoid that from your list at least.

Seconding NFO. I've used them for years now (though for US servers) and have never once had issues with them. Their customer support is excellent.

serveme.tf is free to try, so you could always give it a go. Unfortunately only the BeretBrigade servers have DDoS protection that really works. That machine is hosted in France though, so might not be good for you in Latvia.
NFOservers has decent DDoS protection in the US, I don't know if their EU servers have the same protection, but the NA stuff is good enough for most attacks. They filter the attacks upstream so they stop hitting your server.
Hiperz is still good in my opinion, I really like the ability to rehost your server to a different region/location if you have bad routing for example (this does cost extra).
A dedicated machine from OVH in their GAME range comes with a proper anti-DDoS solution that's tailored for game servers. You're talking 40+ euros/month though, so you might want to look for someone to split the bill with.

Can confirm, all OVH/kimsufi servers come with ddos mitigation, which I imagine is useful if you're hosting a website or something, but for a gameserver all it does is make your server unplayable laggy instead of shutting down completely.
So if you want something that is decidedly not ddos-able, you're looking at the expensive GAME range that Arie linked. Otherwise I can heartily recommend a kimsufi server.
