 Setting the hierarchical argument to true in the register post type
 function doesn't enable the post parent automatically. In order for this
 meta box to show up you must also enable post type support for page-
 attributes or the post type must have templates. I would think the post
 parent dropdown should be visible by default if the post type is
 hierarchical. This applies to both the Classic and Gutenberg editor.
