His mother is the eldest child of Károly Gundel, a famous Budapest innkeeper, Katalin Gundel (1910–2010). His half-brother is Zoltán Latinovits, the child born from his mother's first marriage. His father id. István Frenreisz was an internist, cardiologist, and his brother Károly Frenreisz was a Kossuth Prize-winning rock musician. On the advice of film director Márton Keleti, he took the name Bujtor after his paternal great-grandfather during his first film role.
His first wife was violinist Eszter Perényi, his son Balázs Bujtor was a violinist (born June 13, 1975), his daughter was Anna Bujtor, a lawyer, drama teacher (born February 20, 1979), and his second wife was Judit Bujtor.

The work of the Mihály Munkácsy Prize-winning sculptor Ádám Farkas depicts Bujtor as a helmsman on the ship Rabonbán (cruiser 30).
