Get the GTI, I've test driven it and it's probably one of the best DDs. Like you mentioned, the hatch design allows for fairly good compartment space. The DSG transmission is great. Ample handling and power. Good amount of passenger space.

The only drawbacks I could think of are the design and the throttle lag/turbo lag. When you punch it, it "thinks" a second or two and then lurches forward.

Edit: just noticed you asked for comfort, IMO it was very comfortable. Seats are good and suspension soaks up bumps well.
