painting is a lot easier , if you decided to change the look of the room you simply paint straight over visit a johnstones decorating centre for some fantastic advice and products to help make it better , however if you decided to wallpaper you need to strip the old off and put the new one on making sure if it does have to be matched up !!!! no brainer .

there would not normally be much of a difference.

As the cost of materials is not the deciding factor, then I'd personally say that painting is much quicker so would work out cheaper in relation to labour.
