Good laminate is the easiest to install. However the cheap laminate chips easily and cause cost you more and take longer to install. Avoid the cardboard backed laminates they are horrible to install.
Fairly easy to install but may need a lot of cutting.
If you are doing the whole advice my advice would be to remove all the skirting first and then you’re edges don’t need to be exact and you have more leeway. Re-attach the skirting to the walls allowing the laminate to expand / contract under it. You won’t need the silly, ugly moulding laminate makers sell to finish off round the walls.
Think about removing the architraves as well – the moulding around the doors.
Consider buying new skirting and architraves – looks great,
