I would recommend Wengen or Murren. Both are small and charming and the views are magnificent. Interlaken is, IMO, a place to change trains. I did not care for Grindelwald but I suppose it would be an okay place during ski season. From W and M you can take trips to the Jungfrau and Schiltorn. And the hiking is wonderful from these little towns-a real joy to walk in the alps.
