This is just the description of a building and amenities this building has. Simply can't find the best adjective in Russian better expressing the word "lounge".

agree  Ara Mkrtchyan (X): Depends on whether it's about e.g. office furniture (for clients to wait) or in apartments. In the first case, Kirill's option is preferable, in the second - that of Olga is.

  -> Indeed, "шезлонг" is very specific. It was my first thought, but when noticed it's about a building, I preferred to go with "кресла".

neutral  Vladimir Dubisskiy: i believe it's a wrong usage as "комфортные" means "comfortable" - does not make sense as all furniture is supposed to be comfortable.
