Since you've been happy with the G11 might consider going to Canon Refurbished PowerShots and look at the G15 Refurb $249.99 or possibly the Refurb G1 X $329.29; and read DPR's G15 and G1 X reviews.

If you like the G11's controls and articulating LCD Display the G1 X would be a larger (sensor and size wise) version of the G11.

Personally if had the spare $$ I would like to get the G1 X at this $ for it's low light/high ISO performance.

For considerations other than Canon may want to browse through DPR's Enthusiast compact camera roundup (2014) .

You can use DPR's New Studio Shot Comparison Tool to compare different cameras IQ at various ISO settings.

Another site to compare two different cameras IQ is at Imaging Resource Comparometer; they have a larger selection of cameras but not as flexible/easy to use as DPR's (i.e., DPR can compare 4 cameras at a time and able to change ISO settings while viewing the four images)
