Our ground floor is underfloor heated (hot water), first and second are conventional radiators.
Most of the ground floor is ceramic and all open plan, but the seating area is wooden floor. The floor tiles are toasty warm to the touch, not so much the wooden floor. That was a mistake. No carpets of course. I would never go for radiators again, they're restrictive on the furniture layout and not as good. I want to move my bed but it would block a radiator. I hate walking into the ensuite, bare-foot. Wish I had underfloor heating there too.
The ground floor is all much warmer than the rest of the house and heats quicker, too. Well, it's a 60 square metre radiator I suppose.
No issues so far in 20 years except the boiler, we're on the third.
