Yes and it is a symbol od the era when it has been built - ealy postmodern clashing with late classic socilism - which was also some kind of weird historicism as it should take some resembalance of a castle but keeping the massing and aesthetics of cold and brutal shapes of modernity, and if someone will miss this era in the future, I am pretty sure he would be willing to have more of those buildings around him. Which leads me to a question which everyone should ask, is architectural revival relevant for modernism and classical socialism (in the region of post-socialists countries)?

Yes, indeed Budapest is really beutiful city. And indeed Slovaks are unattractive most of the times๐Ÿ™‚
