I love using "posh". It parses well and its meaning isn't ambiguous.

I like posh because it's distinct from rich. Not all rich people are posh, and sometimes posh people are relatively poor. It's useful to have two different words

Especially as 'classy' has a tacky connotation

I've only ever heard such connotation when it's used sarcastically. 'Posh', on the other hand, often has connotations of 'affected' and 'pretentious'.
