There are several accents in the English language that would be described as "posh" or distinctly "upper class". The posh British accent (and just overall way of speaking) is probably the most recognizable though the Americans have their own version of this too, just think of a rich WASP-y New Englander who went to Harvard.
Does your language have a posh accent or distinctly upper class way of speaking? What does it sound like?

The Jack Kennedy type Massachusetts accent is much different than how some Southie would sound though. And pretty upper class sounding IMO

that is called rp - received pronunciation and a small percentage of people speak that way

RP is the standard accent of English in the UK

We have something like a neutral Spanish (to Mexican ears) which is similar in its role to received pronunciation in British English and mostly based on the speech patterns of upper/educated classes in Mexico City. This would be a good example.

Mexican Spanish is the ugliest hands down
Best is Venezuelan, Salvadorian if it's not too rural and Colombian

Cuban Spanish sounds so much fucking better than all of those.
