The main bus station in Budapest.

buszpályaudvar
Explanation:
Single bus station: buszmegálló
Main bus station generally: buszpályaudvar or autóbuszállomás, both are correct regardless that it is for coaches or city buses. However in my opinion, I would rather say buszpályaudvar for the coach station and autóbuszállomás for a main station for city buses. I hope I could help.

Népliget autóbusz-pályaudvar


Explanation:
Currently, Budapest has no "main" bus station. Without more context, I'd say your sentence refers to the "Népliget coach station" (please see the link).
