When putting CH into a house with concrete floors what is the best way

Run the pipes along the skirting?
Microbore in conduit?

What do people tend to do.

It's really just about cost/convenience of fitting versus appearance of
the final installation.

I would think the money-no-object route would be to run pipes below
ground floor level, in slots in the floor covered with a removable lid
for servicing purposes - but terrible job if not done at the same time
as laying the new floor.

I'd probably go for installing all the pipework below the floor
upstairs, and drop conduit-concealed microbore tubing down to each
ground floor radiator. Doesn't look too bad if you're careful where you
position the drops - eg in a corner, behind a full-length curtain etc.

There used to be hollow plastic skirtings. Pretty convincing once
painted, so convincing I screwed a phone socket to one and blew a fuse
