Seatguru is full of errors - the official Lufthansa seat map shows that 16H does in fact exist.

Business and Eco seats LH 747-8
I flew the LH 748 to delhi. Unfortunately 
icant comment on row 21 as i got an op up to C on the outward leg. Was seated in the upper deck, and the seat as such is great, sleep is comfortable and no danger of footsies with seat neighbour. Note - if seat neighbour snores loudly, use the provided earplugs, plus your bose noise cancellation over ear headphones, and you might, not in my case, not hear them
Seat 16k
Actually a great seat to sleep in. Panel next to head is without window, so pillow places comfortably against the wall. 16H has more leg room that J and K as the bulkhead ends by the middle seat, but you have the annoyance of the separating curtain over your feet.
16k is not suited for people taller than 1.8 meters or 6 feet. I am 1.7 tall, and could just stretch my legs comfortably, but anyone taller will sart to feel cramped.
I also checked out seat 22K and while you can stretch your legs, it was a bit noisy with the toilets. Avoid the seats in front, while you have extra legroom, you have to sleep upright.
Thats all for now

I think they might recline, but you cannot lean to the side as there is a seat missing in K. They seem to have added those seats as an afterthought rather than by intent. At least that was my impression.

Mrs FlyinDutchman and myself recently had seat 86HK. The upper deck is absolutely lovely. It's feel is very spacious. The extra stowage space on the sides is great. Its location is more towards the back of the cabin with one lavatory in the back. I must say I never heard it, so no disturbance from that. Will choose these seats again.
