My opinion is that Tkinter is perfect for the job you describe. It is 
easy to use, fairly pythonic (an issue with some competing toolkits) and 
does not require any fancy installation.

If you want a very professional and "native" look then you have to work 
harder. Options include Tkinter with tile, wxPython, PyQt and several 
others.
