Inaugurated in the spring of 2016, this Center is ready to meet the various needs of overseas tourists, those with pets or women traveling alone, the aged and physically challenged, as well as relaying information in foreign languages or providing information on facilities with free Wi-Fi. We hope everyone can enjoy a travel in Akita in comfort.

Is there any diffrence between in comfort" and "comfortably" in the last sentence?

Thank you!

Does this centre provide information solely about public transportation? Otherwise, the correct word is not "travel" but "stay".
B D Finch Mar 23, 2016:
A travel? "Travel" is an uncountable noun and so cannot be preceded by an indefinite article.

in comfort

The 'in comfort' is OK but the last phrase would be better if it read:

"We hope everyone can enjoy travelling in Akita in comfort."

OR

" We hope everyone can enjoy comfortable travels in Akita."

'Comfortably' would not work here, it needs to be 'in comfort'.
