I wouldn’t recommend visiting Bory Castle, especially if you’re staying in Budapest, as it’s a one-hour drive for a rather underwhelming experience. While the gardens are pleasant, there’s nothing particularly remarkable about the castle itself. The interiors mainly feature artwork and sculptures, but you can’t explore bedrooms or other living spaces. Overall, it’s not worth the trip, as there’s little to see or do beyond what you can find online.

Amazing place to visit near Budapest. If you go to Szekesfehervar, don't dub about look around to Bory castle. The tickets are not expensive, and it was not so crowded. super good!

Very nice castle, located near M7 highway Budapest-Balaton, with a special story (build by one person with a few helpers, at the begging of XX Century) It take 1 hour to visit it (including garden, tower etc). Negativs: no parking places, the caffe was not opened.

Was ok. Beautiful and peaceful palace and place. They are some amazing pictures and artz but they lack context. No Hungarian or English context which you normally find next next to art. Free parking, loads of street parking outside.

Well, it's an interesting place. A 'castle' that someone built personally for themselves. It raises many questions about why someone would do this and why in this way. There are many interesting choices he made and the place is somewhat of a hodgepodge in a way. Perhaps that makes sense considering he built it over 40 years. (I would have loved to see the plans for the castle, and if they are there I missed them.) He was also a sculptor (and a painter) so there are a large number of sculptures and paintings all through the place. I wouldn't go out of my way to visit, but if you happen to be passing and have an interest in the arts and like a quirky castle, then by all means spend some time exploring it.
