While Voldemort might have planned to use Godric's Hollow as a hiding
place, it is unclear that he ever had the opportunity to plant a
horcrux there.  There is a popular theory that Wormtail accompanied
Voldemort on the night of the attack on the Potters, and it seems
unlikely that Voldemort would have been willing to place a horcrux at
that location with a witness along side him.  More likely the horcrux
that Voldemort intended to create from Harry's murder would have been
hidden at Godric's Hollow if everything had gone by plan.

Locations such as the orphanage and Hepzibah's house are certainly
possible.  Hogwarts is also fertile ground for possible hiding places.
Areas such as the Great Hall and Room of Requirements (a location that
Tonks passed while walking to the Headmaster's office) would have been
accessible during Voldemort's job interview and thus must be
considered as possible hiding locations.

As for the Chamber of Secrets, I believe that this was the intended
permanent hiding location for the diary.  This is based on the diary
being a record of how Voldemort found and opened the Chamber along
with the fact that the diary had itself brought down into the Chamber
when the horcrux tried to kill Ginny.
