Even ICMP has a hard time traversing NATs and firewalls these days, for largely bad reasons. Try pinging anything in AWS, for example...

Have to say that I don't encounter any problems pinging hosts in AWS.
If any host is firewalling out ICMP then it won't be pingable but that does not depend on the hosting provider. AWS is no better or worse than any other in that regard, IME.
Doesn't really have anything to do with nat though.
