SA Offers: MM IBD London vs GS/MS/JPM HK

First time posting on this site. I have a dilemma that I want others to chime in.

I study at a target university in the UK, did fairly well in my first year and have managed to secure 2 IBD offers for my summer internship next year. I'm not sure what I should choose among these 2. The BB would give a better brand name but the MM offer is in London.

I'm an international student who would want to start and build my career in the UK after graduating. It may not be possible to lateral from the BB HK office to London after interning there assuming I did a great job. It hasn't happened before as far as I know. If I take the MM offer, I would like to still go out and recruit again next year for FT anyway but at least if I do a good job and work hard, I will secure a position to go back to the firm.

Appreciate any thoughts.
