Wow - I haven't seen a single pipe heating run in ages! I think old hospitals still have them as do telephone exchanges and they can work OK provided you balance the radiators properly, but I think you've made the right decision by going with a heat pump - if you soundproof the room so that it's pretty air tight (which it should be ideally), you way want some cool air in there for the summer, so a reversable chiller/heat pump is probably the best idea overall.
