Preposition At + Place and/or At + The + Place

Question

I know that I can use this structure:

I AM + AT + THE + NAME OF THE PLACE  + TYPE OF PLACE

For instance, I can say:

I'm at the Empire State Building  
  I'm at the Hilton Hotel

However, can we remove the article THE before the name of the place?
For instance, can I say:

Join us at Paris University for this great event
  Book your room at Hyatt Paris now
  We will host an event at Accord Arena in Paris

The preposition is just at -- the rest is a separate part of the sentence.

The need for an article, definite (the), indefinite (a) or none, depends on the noun or noun clause that follows, not on the preposition.
