FWIW, here is how the Lanesborough has outlined how they define what a standard one-category upgrade will look like:

Deluxe Single to Executive Single
Executive Single to Deluxe Double
Deluxe Double to Executive Double
Executive Double to Junior Suite
Junior Suite to Executive Junior Suite
Executive Junior Suite to Apsley Suite
Apsley Suite to Grosvenor Suite
Grosvenor Suite to Buckingham Suite
Buckingham Suite to No upgrade
I don't think it is worth paying 1200 GBP for an Apsley Suite to be upgraded to the Grosvenor Suite. I don't think it is worth paying 750 GBP for the Exec Jr. Suite either..... those were the rack rates last time I checked.... save your money and stay elsewhere
