If you are on Confluence Cloud then the HTML macro doesn't exist there.  (There is a page on the features not present in Cloud that exist on server). Your could see the marketplace for add-ons that enable this functionality (e.g. I found this one) 

If your question is confluence server:

I would double check the HTML is correct / should render -- W3C has a good resource for this (apols if this is something you've already done!)

Attached SS shows a few examples of us including some local transport update / Twitter feeds via iframes

The only other thing I could think of is the HTML macro may be disabled; I've never used Confluence with HTML macro disabled, so I'm unsure if this being disabled still lets you insert the macro, but prevents the content rendering. 

Hope it helps

(p.s. the page properties macro is just me being a bit lazy & is not required for HTML (we periodically get issues where the iframes are stopped, and putting in Page Properties lets me simply toggle visibility on / off)

Thanks you are correct - the HTML macro app doesn't exist on the cloud version.

There should be a native macro called, "HTML" that will allow you to create a page and then add the macro, which you can then copy and paste HTML / CSS into the macro section and have it render after saving the page.

An easy approached that worked for me is to insert a "markup" widget, use the Markdown format and paste HTML contents there.

This works BRILLIANTLY! I wanted to put an HTML rendering of all my Browser Bookmarks into a Wiki and this worked perfectly!
