Most comfortable small family car

Looking for a smallish car that is very comfortable.

Don't mind about sportiness or handling at all. Would rather have something that is comfortable like the Prius, and Volkswagen Golf size.

The Prius is the perfect car (smoother than the Golf) however we cannot get that (for reasons I won't go into).

Quietness is also a bonus. I know you recommend the Chevrolet Spark, however they are very hard to get hold of in automatic, and probably not as comfortable as the slightly bigger cars.
