I put a slip of paper in my bags that only has my name. flight number and phone/email on it. I have no other info on the outside not even the shiny tags that show status.
On the outbound I add the name of the hotel. On the return nothing else.
If the bag went missing, I'm not convinced they would actually open it up to try and identify the owner (it doesn't seem that way from those lost suitcase stores).
I just use a business card tucked into the address tag sleeve. If the bag goes missing, they can contact my office. It protects my home and privacy, and gives the airline a place to contact where they will certainly be able to reach someone.
